The weighted interleave policy distributes page allocations across multiple NUMA nodes based on their performance weight, thereby improving memory bandwidth utilization. The weight values for each node are configured through sysfs. Previously, sysfs entries for configuring weighted interleave were created for all possible nodes (N_POSSIBLE) at initialization, including nodes that might not have memory. However, not all nodes in N_POSSIBLE are usable at runtime, as some may remain memoryless or offline. This led to sysfs entries being created for unusable nodes, causing potential misconfiguration issues. To address this issue, this patch modifies the sysfs creation logic to: 1) Limit sysfs entries to nodes that are online and have memory, avoiding the creation of sysfs entries for nodes that cannot be used. 2) Support memory hotplug by dynamically adding and removing sysfs entries based on whether a node transitions into or out of the N_MEMORY state. Additionally, the patch ensures that sysfs attributes are properly managed when nodes go offline, preventing stale or redundant entries from persisting in the system. By making these changes, the weighted interleave policy now manages its sysfs entries more efficiently, ensuring that only relevant nodes are considered for interleaving, and dynamically adapting to memory hotplug events.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
